"Dr. Joi" w ill guide us in basic meditation (friendly to beginners) w ith w isdom and inspiration from bell hooks and rumi, plus some mindful eating (food from AfroDeli). Dr. Joi w ill facilitate the practice of being "aw ake" through different medians to create space for restorative social justice, mindful leadership, and radical self-care. With such space, Dr. Joi believes w e are better able to gain access to deeper connections and healthy expressions of grief, pain and joy, w hich then, according to Dr. Joi, allow s us to heal and f all in love w ith our Augsburg community, the larger community, and ourselves more deeply—or for the first time. Please join us. Everyone w elcome! More About Dr. Joi D. Lew is: Dr. Joi is a w ellness activist and freedom fighter w ho believes in interrupting her ow n oppressor patterns w ith loving kindness and invites others to do the same. She uses tools like meditation, mindfulness, chanting, song and poetry to examine how race intersects w ith our multiple and intersecting identities: class, gender identity, religion, nationality, ability sexual orientation, etc. She believes that the lack of exploring our multiple and intersecting identities induce isolation & disconnection w ithin our community. So Dr. Joi off ers a practice of being "aw ake" that requires our ultimate health not just our ultimate sacrifice. Dr. Joi spent over 20 years as a practitioner-scholar in higher education at a variety of public and private institutions: land grant, selective private, w omen's college and a community college. She also served as Chief Diversity Officer at three different institutions and as Vice President of Student Affairs at tw o institutions. Throughout her tenure in a variety of senior administrator roles, as w ell as through her scholarship, she has underscored her commitment to ensuring that all people-particularly those w ho have been historically underrepresented--have access to the best programs, services, and experiences possible. Dr. Joi is also a certified Yoga and Zumba Teacher as w ell as a practitioner and f acilitator of meditation. With her ow n multiple identities, Dr. Joi is a trusted leader in a variety of communities--especially w ithin our local African American and Queer communities. She is mindful of the w ays in w hich race and ethnicity intersect w ith identities based on gender(s), social class, religion, national origin, sexuality, and physical ability, as she w orks to hold space that supports our multiple and intersecting identities. Dr. Joi believes that w hen individuals, institutions and organizations "practice" compassion, loving kindness and radical self-care it becomes easier to do w ell and do good and build sustainable and reciprocal relationships w ith both local and global communities.

Subject: Coaching and Feedback for Supervisors Submitter: Sarah Louden, Recruiter/HR Associate, Human Resources Message: Sometimes, as supervisors, we tend to think of performance management as something we do when an employee is not performing well. While feedback is important then, it’s also important when things are going well. Giving feedback reinforces behavior that we want to see continued and helps the employee know how they are doing relative to the expectations we create. Receiving on-going feedback is how employees come to understand how they contribute to the organization and how they can continuously increase the value of that contribution. So, howare YOU at giving feedback? Come to the Coaching and Feedback for Supervisors workshop! Wednesday, October 25 -- 1 - 3 p.m. (Minneapolis Room) Thursday, October 26 -- 9 - 11 a.m. (Century Room) Tuesday, October 31 -- 9 - 11 a.m. (Minneapolis Roam) Wednesday, November 8 -- 1 - 3 p.m. (Century Room) Please RSVP by calling x1058. This workshop will build on the introduction to feedback that we touched on in the August performance appraisal sessions. We will revisit the definition of behavior and sharpen our awareness of its importance when giving feedback. Please bring: * Performance Appraisals by Cathy Lee Gibson - the book you got in August * Performance Appraisal and Planning form (blank) * A situation you would like to practice, if you have one. Otherwise, we have several scenarios that everyone can use. We look forward to seeing you there! Subject: Scholarship Thank- Yous Submitter: Carly Eichhorst, Financial Aid Counselor, Enrollment Center Message: Fall is the season of thanksgiving. A great way to participate in the practice of giving thanks is to stop by Christiansen Center during lunch on Wednesday and write a letter of thanks to the donors who generously make it possible for you to receive an Augsburg education.

For more information, contact Devin: mclennan@augsburg.edu Subject: PEACE IN ISRAEL & PALESTINE? Submitter: Bradley P Holt, Professor, Religion Message: Dr. Ned Hanauer, a nationally known expert on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, will be speaking at Augsburg on Wednesday, April 5, at 3:30 in the Marshall Room of Christensen Center. His topic will be ?After the Palestinian & Israeli Elections: What Are the Peace Prospects?? Edmund Hanauer is the director of SEARCH for Justice and Equality in Palestine/Israel (SEARCH). He has a BA from Dartmouth College and a Ph.D. in Political Science from American University. His dissertation focused on the relationship of American Jews to the state of Israel. Before starting SEARCH in 1972, Hanauer taught political science, history, and international relations at Babson College as well as at the University of Maryland?s European division. In addition to numerous lectures at leading universities and talks to Jewish, Christian, civic, educational, and human rights groups, Hanauer has spoken twice to the Nieman Fellows in Journalism at Harvard and twice to the State Department?s Open Forum of the Secretary of State. His address to the City Club of Cleveland was televised nationally three times by C-SPAN. The City Club talk as well as a speech to the Cambridge Forum were broadcast by radio stations across the US. Hanauer?s articles on the Arab-Israeli conflict have appeared in 30 major newspapers, and he has been interviewed numerous times on TV and radio, including National Public Radio. COMMENTS ON NED HANAUER "Over the years I have found Ned Hanauer to be not only a source of reliable information on the Middle East, but a passionate believer in creating the conditions for social justice in that violence-filled region. His information is always solid and unbiased.” - Colman McCarthy, nationally syndicated columnist "All three of these individuals [Noam Chomsky, Alfred Lilienthal, Elmer Berger] get ?special? mention in The Campaign to Discredit Israel (Washington: The American Israel Public Affairs Committee [AIPAC], 1983). The only other Jewish critic of Zionism who merited a special heading was Edmund Hanauer, the founder of Search for Justice and Equality in Palestine/Israel.” - Edward Corrigan, "Jewish Criticism of Zionism,” American-Arab Affairs, Winter 1990-1991 "All our listeners remark on what a ?wonderfully balanced? presentation Dr. Hanauer made and howhe clarified and summarized a complex set of issues to further their understanding of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict.” - Cambridge Forum, Cambridge, Massachusetts This meeting is sponsored by the John and Alette Quanbeck Lecture Fund Subject: Fair Trade Brown Bag Lunch!
